DFCD Consortium 

"We are pleased to see that DFCD Origination Facility has secured top-up funding in 2024. DFCD's anchor support to Climate Investor 2 has been instrumental in expanding our adaptation efforts in emerging markets and LDCs, in countries that are most vulnerable to climate change. As a consortium partner, we look forward to working closely with the Origination Facility to progress DFCD's work at a greater pace and scale."

"In 2024, SNV remained committed to supporting businesses in developing investable climate solutions through the DFCD Origination Facility. As a trusted partner, we aimed to provide the clarity and confidence needed to move projects forward. One partner described our technical assistance as ‘of excellent quality and a decisive document to go ahead with the development project,’ while another noted that ‘SNV DFCD support is efficient and of high quality'. Their feedback underscores the importance of early-stage support in unlocking sustainable investment opportunities."

Albert Bokkestijn, SNV

"In 2024 we were grateful to put our Origination Facility top-up to work, with expanded capacity and renewed energy. The new impact target for Biodiversity has ensured our new pipeline development has proceeded with a strong nature focus that will benefit both our climate and development impact. It was satisfying to see some of these projects approved by the Investment Committee before the year had closed."

"With our newly secured funding of €240 million, DFCD's consortium partners are scaling up deployment of capital to those companies that help smallholder farmers in climate vulnerable regions become more climate resilient and increasing their wages at the same time."
